Assuming 3NT shows a balanced hand with a tight range (and I guess it should be pretty precise given the amount of space it takes up) then I think it would be better to play 4NT as rkc. Otherwise it becomes troublesome to handle the strong spade hands which just want to keycard. Meanwhile the loss of a quant bid is pretty minor given that responder has already tightly limited his/her hand.

edit: I see some suggestions that opener should cuebid on the way to rkc but then it becomes troublesome to show the 2-suiter.

If 3NT agrees a balanced ♠ fit, then, 4NT is RKC.

If 3NT can be with only 2 ♠, then, 4NT is quantitative.

Simple enough and it works, no need to complicate with cue bids in order to "set" trumps.

I think the 3NT bid has made it impossible to show a 2-suiter.

If the 3NT shows a 3 card fit for the Major, then 4-new suit will always be interpretted as a Ctrl Cue bid;

whereas:
1M - 2m! ( 2/1 GF )
3m - 3M always shows a 2-suiter.

Also, another negative attribute for the 3NT bid is when M = Hearts... now Opener has no room below 4H to cuebid Spades.

What about using the otherwise almost idle 3NT response as RKC for spades? It keeps the bidding lower and suggests slam. With all this other 13-15 HCP junk you can start with a forcing NT or temporize at the two level in one of your minor suit 4 baggers.
1. You can afford to ask for key cards and get out at the four level. No serious worries with a small doubleton side suit holding. You will be just with the field.
2. If opener has serious extras, then a 4NT response to 3NT is RKC in spades where five is at worst a safe bailout, six is very, very likely, and seven is in the picture.
3. With moderate extras, opener can suggest slam by venturing to the five level with a cue bid after responder signs off at 4♠.
